Chinese lights add to Diwali sparkle

KANPUR: The markets are flooded with Chinese multi-colour lights in various forms and styles this Diwali. These fancy lights are giving a tough time to potters and candle makers. They are worried lot as the sale of earthen 'diyas' and candles are declining.
Majority of the people prefer to decorate their homes with the low cost, multi-coloured and fancy Chinese lights. These lights look good and are also environment friendly.
According to sources in the market, the demand for fancy Chinese lights has increased manifold in the past few years. The demands for candles had reduced but these are still in the market. But the earthen lamps had almost vanished.

"The demand for Chinese lights had increased amazingly. Last year, we almost ran out of stock. This year, the demands is expected to reach to new heights," said Dheeraj, owner of shop at Ram Narain Bazaar.
The designer LED bulbs are available at Rs 30 per piece, a set of four crystal balls for Rs 150 and Ganesh showpiece with LED lights ranges from Rs 150 to Rs 300. Whereas, the Chinese lamps cost between Rs 50 and Rs 100.
Chhotu, another shopkeeper at P Road, said that the market has been flooded with a variety of LED lights. These are much in demand not only by the modern lot but also by those who believe in traditional decoration.
The Chinese lights are available in various forms. Among these, pipe light (Rs 30 per metre) and chip light (Rs 660 per five metres) are common and high in demand. Also huge star light (Rs 150), heart light (Rs 150), peacock wing (Rs 175), 'Swastik' (Rs 160) and 'Om' (Rs 150) (all LED lights) are the other items in demand.
"I have already sold hundreds of such LED pieces till now and in coming days I expect to sell more. Though it is not something new, still people are lapping it up," added another shopkeeper.
The multi-coloured and fancy Chinese lights are grabbing the market because these are trendy and affordable.

Chinese lights can also be used to decorate the interiors as well. Attractive items like big colourful light balls (electronic kandeel) made of cloth and thread at Rs 660, lights in the shape of 'Ganesh-Lakshmi' made of bamboo for Rs 900 are also in demand.
The only thing Indian about the Chinese lights are the interesting names. There is 'magic' light that exhibits a change in colour within a short span of time. 'Damru lights' with countless mini-bulbs in a row is another attraction.
Easy on the pockets, these lights can be bought at Rs 60 per piece (per piece and includes about 40 bulbs). The four-in-one 'crystal gola' exhibits various hues of red, green, orange and blue, said Abdul, a light shop owner on Birhana Road.
Other varieties available in the market are 'flower jaal'and 'pearl strip' that can be combined with the rope lights to cover an entire building.
"I prefer Chinese lights over 'diyas' because these come at an affordable price and there is a wide variety to choose from. The best part is these lights can be used again and again, contrary to traditional diyas," said Sachin, a local resident.

Weekly beer tasting notes: Almanac Summer 2010


Can you imagine losing the ability to do something that you had enjoyed doing your entire adult life?
That happened to Pedro Gonzalez eight years ago when he was diagnosed with celiac disease. He had to give up all foods with gluten, including beer.
But, Gonzalez did not lose his love of beer, and he and his wife, Seneca Murley, created New Planet Beer to brew gluten-free beers.
"It's a very personal experience to be able to enjoy a product that you haven't been able to enjoy for a long time because for the longest time there wasn't anything out there," said Gonzalez. "Recently, I had a hot dog with a gluten-free bun. I was basically teary-eyed. I was sitting there with a beer and eating a hot dog on a bun and I was happy."
After years of sickness, Gonzalez, of Colorado, was diagnosed with celiac disease, an autoimmune disorder, an intolerance to gluten that causes damage to the small intestines and doesn't allow food to be properly absorbed. Although he was happy to find out what was causing his medical problems, he had to give up anything that contained barley, wheat, rye and other cereal grains to remain healthy. That includes most breads, crackers, beer and other items.
A few years ago, Gonzalez was at a cookout and inside the cooler he found a bottle of a gluten-free beer.
"It was such a let down; it didn't taste like a beer," he said.
Gonzalez then contacted his friend Roy Emmons, a former brewer for the Rock Bottom chain of brewpubs, and asked him to help make a gluten-free beer that tastes like a real beer.
The problem with that is you're brewing a beer without a key ingredient, barley. Gluten-free beers instead use a lesser-known cereal grain, sorghum.
"We're trying to craft traditional characters out of untraditional grains," he said.
To help give the beers some body, New Planet also uses other ingredients, such as brown rice extract, tapioca, orange peel, corn and molasses in its beers to help give the body a little more body.
In 2009, New Planet Beer started selling its beers, and although they do not taste like traditional beers, they are closer than any other of the gluten-free beers on the market.
Currently, the company brews three beers -- 3R Raspberry Ale, Off Grid Pale Ale and Tread Lightly Ale. All three beers are 5 percent alcohol by volume.
The 3R Raspberry Ale is just that, a raspberry ale. It is light, and the raspberry flavors really does a good job of hiding the different taste sorghum gives a beer than traditional malts.
"If you're a raspberry beer type of person, you can drink two or three of these," said Gonzalez. "That's kind of our standard. We're trying to to make beer where people want a few of these."
Gonzalez said his goal is to someday have gluten-free beers to become as accepted as regular beer, and that there are no differences in flavors.
"We want to give a real traditional experience for someone," he said. "There is a 'Gluten-Free Beer' category at the (Great American Beer Fest in Colorado). Imagine if the quality of gluten beer was so good that we could compete against the other beers in all of the other categories, instead of having our own category. I hope that happens someday."

China's Ball Bearings Market

China's Ball Bearings Market to Grow in 2011, Competitor Friction Also Increasing GCiS China Strategic Research has published a study of the China market for ball bearings. Covering the biggest end user markets, this study provides an in-depth look at the five leading industry segments, with market figure breakdowns for the four most widely used types of ball bearings in the market. Surveys were conducted between Q2 and Q3 2010, to assess current market dynamics and trends.The study finds that the ball bearings market in China is a large market with many suppliers and moderately strong growth. Due to the widespread end user applications of this product, industry growth has been closely linked to the rapid development of China’s automotive and electric equipment industries, which form substantial portions of total derived demand for the products.This large market is nevertheless is hampered by uneven regulation and regulations enforcement across different regions and applications. This has created a chaotic competitive environment that suppliers find difficult to predict. Challenges faced include simultaneous pressure to improve product technology and cut costs, price competition and tolerance of fake products among both customers and regulators.Despite the intense competition, opportunities in this market lie in both the predominant deep groove bearings segment and in the smaller product segments such as angular contact thrust bearings, where fewer small domestic suppliers are involved due to technology constraints. Currently the biggest end user markets are the machinery & machine tools and automotive industries.

Electric bicycles cruise into town







Electric bicycles cruise into town
Move over, hybrid cars. Electric bicycles may soon gain momentum as the next big thing in eco-friendly travel.
A cross between a scooter and a traditional bike, the electric bicycle, commonly known as the e-bike, allows riders to propel themselves by pushing the pedals or gunning a battery-powered motor, or through a combination of both.
Most e-bikes have many of the same features as a traditional bicycle, including a metal frame, pedals, gears and handlebar-mounted brakes. The differences become apparent, however, when a rider turns on the e-bike's battery and twists its scooter-like throttle to move.
Topping out at speeds of 20 mph on motor power alone, the e-bikes can reach nearly 40 mph when using pedaling and motor power.
For several months, Ken Alder, owner of River Bicycles, 12 Riversville Road, has been offering test rides to customers on two newly released e-bike models at his shop in hopes of generating local consumer interest in the products.
His target customers are those who enjoy bike riding, he said, but have trouble with distances or are intimidated by steep hills. In Greenwich, the bikes are especially well-suited for riders who want to cruise scenic backcountry roads without having to contend with its steep slopes.
"This is not a wuss's bike. You're still going to have to pedal," Alder said. But while other bikers "huff and puff" their way up hills, he added, "you can just crank on the juice and enjoy the view. ... All of a sudden,

Greenwich becomes Florida" in terms of terrain.
On Alder's e-bikes, a mounted battery powers a 1,000-watt "magnetic pulse" motor that runs for 20 miles on a single battery charge, or more than 40 miles when combining motor power and moderate pedaling, he said.
On most recent e-bike models, owners can detach the battery from the hub, where it is typically mounted, and recharge it by plugging into a wall socket for four to six hours. Older models often featured an external motor attached to the gear system, with circuitry embedded in the frame.
However, recent advances in the design - including hub-mounted motors, batteries and computer systems - have made the newer models more reliable and easier to operate, said Rob Koshar, manager of Greenwich Bicycles, 189 Greenwich Ave.
Prices for e-bikes range widely. "IZIP" models can be ordered online for as low as $700. In Greenwich, Dave's Cycle and Fitness, 78 Valley Road, also carries models by popular manufacturers Giant and Schwinn, which sell for $2,100 and under.
At Alder's shop, the two Electric Motor Systems "E+" models - one a cruiser, the other a mountain bike - go for $3,500 apiece.
While the higher prices may inspire sticker shock, Greenwich bike enthusiast Julian Ybarra said riders who substitute a pricey e-bike for their four-wheeled gas-guzzler as their primary mode of conveyance around town will realize long-term saving on fuel and car maintenance.
"It's going to pay back over time," said Ybarra, a competitive cyclist who is considering purchasing his own e-bike for leisure riding and weekend commutes in Greenwich. That, he added, "and you can use it to blow off your car."

Don't Fart in Bed

This is a story about a couple who had been happily married for years. The only friction in their marriage was the husband's habit of farting loudly every morning when he awoke. The noise would wake his wife and the smell would make her eyes water and make her gasp for air. Every morning she would plead with him to stop ripping them off because it was making her sick. He told her he couldn't stop and that it was perfectly natural. She told him to see a doctor. She was concerned that one day he would blow his guts out. The years went by and he continued to rip them out! Then one Thanksgiving morning as she was preparing the turkey for dinner and he was upstairs sound asleep, she looked at the bowl where she had put the turkey innards and neck, gizzard, liver and all the spare parts and a malicious thought came to her. She took the bowl and went upstairs where her husband was sound asleep and, gently pulling back the bed covers, she pulled back the elastic waistband of his underpants and emptied the bowl of turkey guts into his shorts. Some time later she heard her husband waken with his usual trumpeting which was followed by a blood curdling scream and the sound of frantic footsteps as he ran into the bathroom. The wife could hardly control herself as she rolled on the floor laughing, tears in her eyes! After years of torture she reckoned she had got him back pretty good. About twenty minutes later, her husband came downstairs in his bloodstained underpants with a look of horror on his face. She bit her lip as she asked him what was the matter. He said, "Honey, you were right. All these years you have warned me and I didn't listen to you. "What do you mean?" asked his wife. "Well, you always told me that one day I would end up farting my guts out, and today it finally happened. But by the grace of God, some Vaseline, and these two fingers, I think I got most of them back in.
